Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's narrative, set within the U.S. Naval Academy, champions themes of individual discipline, perseverance, and ultimately, duty and patriotism, as its protagonist learns to thrive within a traditional military structure. While it touches on class differences, the solution presented is individual adaptation and embracing institutional values rather than systemic critique.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast, including a prominent Black actor in a key supporting role, but does not involve explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white roles. Its narrative follows a traditional underdog story within a military setting, emphasizing themes of discipline and perseverance without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering DEI themes.
